ThirtyONE Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Agreed but I very much doubt anybody gives us we want UNLESS they are confident they can resign him. I just think it would be a mistake especially if we get a meh package which is most likely Did you hear what they're asking for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 It's a mistake you really can't make because he's already made that mistake on 98% of the contracts he doled out since you arrived on players that were garbage and untradable before the ink was even dry. It's unfortunate, but I think Pete is right. The fact they have to pinch pennies and move pieces isn't because they are, or at least should be, still in rebuild mode, it's because Gorton fucked everything up. The players he bought out were still useful and the ones he retained are garbage. Seems like a nice guy, but we shouldn't be anywhere close to this position.

Dunny Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 whats her buyout cap hit? 12 useless cartons of protein bars next year, reducing to the price of an unused instapot each year after for three years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Kreider having a career year... Absolutely tearing it up. On pace for 60 points. Because he did fuck all for first 25 games. Story of this guys career. Anything over $6x5 is a huge mistake. So they'll sign him for $8x8 and you'll all want him moved in year 6 just like Lundqvist LOL. Year 6? Wow... Pete being generous tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRangers723 Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Did you hear what they're asking fo ? Of Course. I just don’t see anybody willing to do that. Colorado is the only team that has the high end prospect the Rangers would want but it doesn’t seem like they would trade them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colorado is the only team that has the high end prospect the Rangers would want but it doesn’t seem like they would trade them Even if they get half of what they're asking for, it's a good return.

I've been complaining about it since the cap. What makes it worse, they overpay the guy on his first contract by 25%, then another 25% on the second contract. Explains why they haven't had players finish out 4+ year contracts... ever. (unless of course its the Rangers re-signing them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Even if they get half of what they're asking for, it's a good return. Fuck yeah, get pumped for the 26th pick and a conditional 3rd. And Martin Kaut! Martin fuckin Kaut! Ultimately, I think you're right and they prudently move him, but we're going to be worse for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not advocating his trade. It just seems the most likely end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpshooter Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 I like Gauthier's game. Good speed and made some things happen. This might have been the first time all season where the Rangers rolled four lines that I actually liked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty9 Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Did you hear what they're asking for? Number one pick, top prospect ,and maybe a third rounder ,if the other team signs him ,the rangers get a other first . You could see the difference in Kreider when he is on a line with skilled players,pretty much his whole career he played with mediocre linemates, Zig and kreider are a good match so is Buch ,but Buch always waits until after the allstar break to turn it on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More like year 4, but I hope I'm not thrown in that pile. Kreider's a wet dream this last 8 weeks...SELL HIGH GORTON!!! :lol: :lol: He pisses me off. He's always been streaky but he's playing like the guy we all wanted him to be for years. During a contract year no less. Don't think his value has ever been higher. Get as big a return as possible and move on. Ding Ding Ding!!!!!! Two fat rangers fans walk into United Center... Sounds like you guys had a blast!! The game was pretty good too. That third period must've been a blast to watch in the stands! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
